Oasis: Manor Nebort House, August 10-11, 1996
Concerts who crowned Oasis leaders of the Brit-pop movement, confirming the status of the most popular British group after The Beatles. During the two August nights, the concert was visited by more than 250,000 spectators, which could be said to be lucky, as there were more than two million. At the end of the second day, Noel Gallahher went on stage and announced: "This is our story!".

1976. (Hereinafter, the year of recording is indicated, and not the release of the disc.) Historically, the Beatles there is not a single decent documented concert, not to mention the fact that after 1966 they did not speak alive at all (LET IT apartment BE on the roof does not count). It would seem that the situation for fans of hopeless, but there is one trick that helps to join the Bitlovsk atmosphere through a black move. Namely through this triple (on vinyl) album based on Tourna, Paul McCartney in America at the very moment when he was in the best shape and The Beatles have not yet been kanal in the distant Stargown past. Actually, Bitlovsky songs there are not so much, five pieces, but also the selection of material, and execution, and the proceded enthusiasm - everything is on the fantastic level!

Bob Marley: Live!

1975. The most famous Performance of the Rastaman semi-brand in the original contains only seven tracks, but among them the canonical live recording of No Woman, No Cry, which since then turn on the radio much more often from the album Natty Dread 1974. And after all, this is the case when DJs are right: such concert records are valyttened by knockout.

Depeche Mode: "101"

1988. Record the last, one hundred first concert Depeche Mode as part of a grand tour with the album Music for the Masses. Actually, this is the result of the entire career of the Basildon Quartet, for after him Depeche Mode recorded Violator and a completely different story began. Among the fans of the group (and this is almost every second Russian) the "101" concerter is always biblical status.

James Brown: Live At The Apollo

1962. The cultory record in the African American environment, which in the year of his exit blew so much to the population that the "black" radio stations turned on the entire plate entirely, from beginning to end, without expanding on separate songs. Be sure to say that the album ended up checking time, even today hears explosive!

The WH: Live At the Isle of Wight

1970. In those days, when the rock bands were just learned to rumble with mega cybels, the WHO was pioneers on this part. Musical critics are called the most classic Live At Leeds concert (also in 1970), but he is dry, he lacks some brutal bootleg gesture. What you can not say about the post from the Festival of Isle of Wight, listening to times you feel that the tower of lamp amplifiers dropped on you.

Judas Priest: Unleashed in the East

1979. The perfect Hevi-metal concert, on which, however, and the company is pretty jumper, part of the material in secretly overwriting in the studio situation. Well, okay, it was worth it. Like all the great concert plates, Unleashed in the East has a miraculous property to file any song many times more than it sounded before this in the studio. This is especially important for Judas Priest, whose plates of the 70s sounded damp and timidly. The concerter corrected everything!

RAMONES: IT "S Alive

1977. Unheard of conciseness and generosity for its time: 28 songs in one album album! Panka Ramones pioneers have a particularly neglected case: any of their thing at the concert sounded faster, more powerful and more fun than on studio disks, tortured by producers to death. IT "S Alive - their most famous album, although from the moment of its release, a fair number of plates appeared no less interesting. From the late you can listen to the interest of Greatest Hits Live - completely different impressions, but also rainbow.

Elvis Presley: Elvis As Recorded AT Madison Square Garden

1972. The rarest case in the industry of those years, when the entire 53-minute concert was fitted with the entire 53-minute concert, and what else! Okay, rock and rolls, but even ballads are fulfilled once and faster than the usual originals. And not a trace of the fat and the laziness, which Late Elvis was famous! This is the most irrepressible clockwork performance, through which you can feel, for what I was called by the king. By the way, the plate was released only 8 days after the concert itself.

LED Zeppelin: How The West Was Won

1972. The greatest concert group of the 70s during his lifetime was never shot by a decent concert record, leaving only an uneven album and the movie The Song Remains The Same. Already with the onset of the CD era, lovers to dig in the archives made a volitional jerk and selected, in their opinion, the best of the preserved concerts. And they did not lose. The album was released in 2003 and ranked first in American charts - for the first time after decay LED Zeppelin!

Deep Purple: Made in Japan

1972. The Deep Purple group, unlike their colleagues from lead airship, was lucky unheard: they released his greatest concert album while still in life, at the peak of form and fame. For the fans of Made in Japan others like on a heavy rock, it remains a reference (and unattainable) sample of stadium rock. Even a million times recorded and rewritten Smoke on The Water here is embodied more beautiful than in any other version. To understand why - no one is given. Something like magic.

The genre "Rock" began to form in the 50s, and its progenitor became rock and roll. These were inelencing Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly and, of course, the King Elvis Presley himself. With each new decade, the music was transformed, turned out to be genres and subgenians. It is worth noting the most basic directions of rock music:

  • blues-rock - combines the features of blues and rock and roll, but it sounds more rhythmically than classical blues;
  • havi-metal - heavy and gloomy music, the highlight of which often becomes an honed guitar solo;
  • progressive rock - recognizes in long and complex compositions (10-20 minutes);
  • hard rock - characterized by heavy sound;
  • russian rock - formed in the USSR in the 70s, the texts of the group "Aquarium", "Cinema", "Time Machine" and others are still taking per soul;
  • black metal - hard, often depressive and gloomy sound, emphasis is more on texts than to music;
  • punk rock is characterized by dynamic texts, sharp melodies and rude vocals;
  • folk Rock - a clean guitar sound is used, and most importantly - this is vocal parties;
  • art-rock - the main tool of the genre is the electrical organ or synthesizer.

All rock music genres unites one - spiritual and vital texts. This is especially traced in the lyrics of Russian rock stars, where the musicians are lyric and talk about their experiences, love and life in Russia. But some metal groups perform very aggressively, crash tools, create a special, brown atmosphere.

Some musicians are with the participation of the symphony orchestra. But do not think that at such concerts calmly and you can relax, on the contrary - the orchestra emphasizes the power of the classics of heavy rock, so the sound is even more magnificent.

Where are rock concerts?

In the capital and Moscow region, rock musicians perform in large concert venues. For example, in Crocus City Hall, at the Opening Arena Stadium, in the Sports Palace "Megasport", in the Grand Kremlin Palace, the "Izi" club, the capital club Adrenaline Stadium and other sites and art spaces.

The choice of platform for the speech depends mainly on the time of year and the scale of the event. In summer, concerts are carried out at stadiums - open, large and capable of accommodating thousands of fans at the same time. Winter concerts are carried out in clubs, cultural palaces, scenes for hotels and other closed concert venues.

What do you need to know before visiting the rock concert?

Rock concert is a rue, energy and no rules. Almost no, since several rules still have:

  • do not post a ticket photo in the social network - if a barcode is visible, someone else can take advantage of the ticket;
  • buy tickets to the fan zone - there is the best sound, but it will have to stand (and it is better to dance or squeeze);
  • do not speak during quiet lyrical songs;
  • examine a set list of the artist - so you will be almost the right to know with which repertoire he performs, especially if this is touring;
  • take part in Flashmobs - Fans often arrange interesting flash drives, thanks to which the concert is stirred stronger;
  • request to go on bis - if the public does not ask the musicians to go on bis, then she is not delighted with the speech.

13. Rod Stewart, 1994 and Jean-Michel Zharr, 1997

The record of the genus Stewart on attendance at concerts amounted to 3,500,000 people! But not even explain how the musician was able to spread about half of the population of Rio de Janeiro. So many spectators gathered on the main beach of the capital of Brazil. Undoubtedly, the kind of stewart is for what to love - as he is one of the most successful artists of Britain, Rock and pop veteran, man and steamer! But so ... the concert was free or what? Rolling Stones once barely hit charity. And by the way, on the same Brazilian beach. But the peoples were two times less.

The French musician Jean-Michel Zharmar divided the first place on attendance with the birth of the stewart. The figure of 3,500,000 people is marked even in the Book of Records Ginis. And not somewhere, but already in Moscow! The concert itself was free, but I never had so many people from Zhera, despite the fact that I organized the speeches and in more interesting places. He received a record deserved - everything was at the highest level.

12. Milen Farmer, 1999-2000.

The French singer Milen Farmer practically does not protrude outside France. And in general, it does not often give concerts. But the amount is completely refundable. Gorgeous scenery, magnificent light, a large number of dancers, a change of costumes many times for the concert ... more and what show! This is the most real performance! In 1999, Farmer left the concert from France for the first time, and even reached Russia. Muz-TV then called her performances with the best concert of the year. Even the name struck - "MYLENIUM"!

11. Nirvana, 1994

Concerts "without electricity" by 1994 were invented long ago. But it was the album of a very popular rock collective Nirvana "Unplugged in New York" at that time turned the acoustic programs in an intrusive idea for almost all musicians, it doesn't matter even in what style they played. For the group itself, the performance on MTV turned out to be very illustrative, but it was not like, then insanity, which brought the team worldwide popularity and fame for life. And even posthumous for someone. By the way, it is quite possible that at the moment Kurt Cobain gives just such concerts on rock and roll heaven.

10. Festival "Woodstock", 1969

60s ... Hippie, summer love, sex revolution, short skirts and long legs ... And all this is going to one word - Woodstock is a three-day festival, even three-day, as people went on stage right at night. Even the headlining event - Jimmy Hendrix, few people saw - the exhausting public no longer withstands such a pressure of sex, drugs and rock and roll. Under police reports, three people died during the festival. Of course, the same and born - right there, on the field. Then there was already the 10th anniversary of the festival, 20-, 25- and 30th anniversary, but there was no longer such a resonance. Not those times, not the places.

09. Festival in Tushino, 1991

In terms of cultivation, something similar was repeated many years later in Moscow. It was all cool: the right time, place and normal performers. Undoubted idols and generally accepted authorities for all rockers and metallians gave a concert in the lair at the very defeated "Evil Empire". Tickets were not required to buy, which is why all the money went on alcohol, which was not forbidden to carry on the airfield field. As a result, the number of bloody clashes with the police does not even know the police itself. Even still can not count how many people took part in Tushinsky Potoishche! I am even impressive digitized - from 500,000 to a million! Even Metallica and AC / DC stated that they had never played before so much people.

08. Concert of memory Freddie Mercury, 1992

Six months after the death of Freddie Mercury, the participants of the Queen group organized the grand commemoration on their friend. And also collected money for the opening of the AIDS Foundation. Collected very quickly - all 72,000 tickets scattered in almost a couple of hours. Also - the live broadcast is practically in the hundreds of countries in the world. Soccer with the musicians of Ex-Queen on the stage of the Wembley stadium in turns performed more than twenty teams and performers - from David Bowie and Elton John, to Metallica and Guns N'ROres.

07. Queen, 1986

The Queen group itself has not once leaving the "Wembley" scene. One of these concerts was, then recorded on the record and video. And in 1986, this show was shown more than once on TV and twisted on the radio. The team was then very popular, Mercury was in the best form, did not yet performed songs about a broken heart and creased makeup, the fans went crazy, even dragged the 6-meter inflatable figure of Frebrdi, which was in the sky above the stadium.

06. Deep Purple, 1972

The Japanese enthusiastically love Hard Rock. They are in the blood and in the subconscious. But before they did not even suspect it. Obeta, they learned from Deep Purple, which were given in 1972 three concerts in Japan. Concerts as concerts, nothing. For the Japanese, it became the most real revelation. The earth trembled, thunder thundered, shone zipper, and, in the noise of this element, the musicians presented the seven of their commandments to the Japanese. And they, in turn, released these records on vinyl scrubbles. "Made in Japan" for many years has become the standard of the concert plate at all.

05. Depeche Mode, 1988

Flying on tour to America in 1988, the musicians of the English team Depeche Mode compiled for no most favorable time chosen for the tour. Since their new record occupies rather low places in foreign charts. But closer to the final tour of the tour, the Album "Music for the Masses" was actually folk. Therefore, sin was not perpetuating such an event for history. A large-scale concert at the Stadium in Pasadena lay down the basis of the film "101", which even went into film distribution.

04. U2, 1992-93.

The U2 team has long been and very productively works on his concerts. For this rating, a concert "ZOO TV TOUR" is chosen: hundreds of screens, radio hairs, flying cars, teleconference with Sarajevo, where the war was in full swing, the characters are like a "man-mirror ball" or "flies", which called the UN and American president Bush. Funny what, according to the idea of \u200b\u200bthe musicians, all this was to make fun of these excesses at rock concerts. Funny - because the following concerts ukkomnaya year have become more complicated and larger.

03. Paul McCartney, 2003

Paul McCartney - is almost the last of Western rock musicians who reached Russia. His former colleague Ringo Starr and then reached us to visit us. But the floor took and strolled the president himself, and the concert show was in the very center of Moscow. Right on the Red Square in general, few people performed. Event, of course, desirable and unforgettable and unique for us. By the way, there is a whole film about this legendary show. The director was the famous musician and Bitoman Maxim Captain.

02. Roger Waters, "The Wall"

30 years ago, Roger Waters was obsessed with the idea of \u200b\u200ba wall that shares ... Well, his philosophy changed over the years, and the wall, as a symbol and a stable source of income remains constant and on this day. Once waters built a wall even inside his former team, which led to the inevitable split. The Pink Floyd themselves have already performed this work only a few times, and now there is no such group. But Roger is building and ruffles his group enviable constancy and regularity. Only here, bricks are now not from cardboard, but virtual. Well, because the musicians themselves brought the recipe for success: why do you need new compositions when there are good old? Only remains - improve your concerts.

01. Rammstein.

Choose some one concert Rammstein is unreal. This hot group is worthy to lead a list of the most incendiary concerts of all time and peoples. And this makes it possible to stay at a high level even during the time of the creative crisis - recently not all the work of Rammstein is equally useful. About the show you will not say, they are the main advantage of the team. Play so many years one and the same, but at the same time, not everyone can surprise themselves and amazing the audience!

The first record for the number of viewers at the concert was installed by the BEATLES group - their half-hour show, held on August 15, 1965 at the New York Shea Stadium, visited 55,600 people.

And what are the speeches of the musicians received the status of the most large-scale concerts of our time?
